CZ wedding ring with Gold setting

I JUST Got Engaged Last Night… and the ring it beautiful but I can tell the diamonds aren’t real but he did such a good job picking it out n told me he wants to get me real diamonds.. but our finacial Status can support that type of payment

I don’t have a problem with the ring but I sent it to some n they said “did he get that out of a cracker jack box” and it really hurt my feelings.. I’m 23 n I guess I shouldn’t care what people think.. but I just wanted some opinions if I would be able to put real diamonds in if the setting of the ring is real gold

alineice09: god people are so rude. whoever said that to you is a jerk, and as far as i know it’s not the norm. i can’t think of any reason why they’d say that to you, and hopefully no one else is as tactless and ugly. your ring is beautiful! congratulations on your engagement!! 🙂

I can tell it’s CZ based on the picture (but only because you told us so), but that’s simply because most people don’t have a perfect stone. A perfect diamond next to a CZ virtually looks the same. It’s beautiful, and instead of thinking a rude thought about it I would be thinking WOW she has a really flawless diamond!

alineice09: Your ring is beautiful! It absolutely does not look like it came out of a Cracker Jack box. People that know your age or financial situation might assume that it’s not an actual diamond, but that’s based on other factors…not because of how it looks. Don’t pay attention to their rude comments and enjoy your ring. You can always upgrade the center stone to a real diamond in the future. Congrats on your engagement!

alineice09: Oh my gosh! I just want to hug you because of the rude things people said to you. I am so sorry you had to deal with that kind of reaction. I think people sometimes think they are being funny with their comments, but such things can be very hurtful. I would have been heartbroken if someone had said that to me.

Your ring is BEAUTIFUL!!! Whether it’s CZ or not, it is a beautiful ring. It looks amazing on you. And it came from your wonderful FI, which is what counts for more than anything! Later, when you guys feel ready, you will have no problem at all with putting diamonds (or any other gorgeous stone you might love — there’s tons of choices out there!) into the setting. But only if you and your FI want to do that.

longtimemrs: yea it really hurt my feelings and made me really look at the ring but only because of what others thought, but at the end of the day I’m happy .. and thank you so much for your kind words!

I cannot believe someone would say something so hurtful. I never look at someone’s ring and try to figure out if it is a diamond or another stone. If it is pretty, it is pretty – you know?

I would be proud that your fiance took the time to find something beautiful and affordable. Also, if this makes you feel a bit better about prouding wearing a CZ, you can think of it this way – you KNOW that it was lab grown and wasn’t mined by people working and living in inhumane or violent conditions. I think that makes them even more beautiful than a diamond!

My point? It doesn’t matter what’s on that finger, as long as something is! These friends of yours, are they engaged? I’m willing to bet they are not and long for the day that someone loves them enough to want to marry them and be given something as beautiful as your ring.

Your rings are beautiful! People are just haters / jealous. I canNOT tell that your ring is CZ. Don’t let them get to you or make you feel insecure in any way. In fact, my ring is a real diamond and just because it sparkles so much I STILL have people at work ask if it is fake. The only thing I can deduce from this is that people are stupid. (and that people are probably stereotyping based on race but I digress)
